Features
Read full description

Gamepad MIDI turns your game controller into a MIDI controller for iOS. The sticks, triggers, D-pad and buttons all send MIDI. Map any control to a note or a CC. Then play your synths, drum machines and effects with the controller in your hands. BUTTONS Play notes or send CCs. Hold for momentary, tap to latch, or fire a one-shot trigger. TRIGGERS AND STICKS Sweep a CC smoothly as you press or push. Great for filters, sends and swells. DIALS Turn the D-pad or a stick into a dial that stays where you leave it. Circle a stick to turn it like a knob. Set how fast it turns, and how long it keeps spinning after you let go. EASY TO MAP Press a control on the gamepad to select it. Set its channel, number and mode on screen. A SEND button makes MIDI learn easy. Your mapping is saved with your project. Works with the game controllers iOS supports. Runs as an AUv3 MIDI plugin. No accounts, no tracking, no data collected.
